Kurt Voelker

Kurt gets the big picture. He has been active in the web technology space for more than 13 years, applying innovative internet strategies to solving business challenges.

As Forum One's chief technology officer, Kurt leads the implementation of technology services to help clients increase their impact. He manages web development projects, identifies and cultivates new client opportunities, and guides the expansion of Forum One’s product line to better serve clients. He also advises senior executives about technology, trends, investment planning, and execution. Kurt is a frequent speaker and panelist at conferences on technology issues facing organizations.

Prior to joining Forum One in 2001, Kurt served as the acting CTO for the National Nonprofit Practice of Commerce One Global Services. He was also director of solutions and innovation at AppNet. A highlight was the six months he spent in Amsterdam helping the World Wide Fund for Nature build its global intranet.

Kurt moved to the Washington, D.C., area as a small child from Long Beach, California. He holds a bachelor's degree in English and philosophy from Randolph-Macon College and a master's degree in information systems management from George Washington University. A proud dad of four, he plays pick-up basketball whenever he can and coaches a fifth-grade CYO team.

You may not know: He's from D.C., but he's a Dallas Cowboys fan.
